Dilkhusa Grand Hotel by Compass Hospitality

Friendly welcome and service at this hotel. Helped me with my bags as even though there’s a lift there are a lot of stairs between levels on the floors. Allowed me to leave my bags during the day after check out and collect later. Didn’t try breakfast so can’t comment on that. It’s a basic hotel with quite dated decor but the rooms are clean and service good. Good choice for overnight before or after ferry to Lundy Island.

Again another great stay. It is in a great location and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Would love to stay longer next time.

Upon arrival, we were greeted with a completely full car park, forcing us to park on the street and pay for the privilege, which was an unwelcome start to my stay. The check-in process was uneventful, but that was the only positive aspect of my experience; the room bore no resemblance to the enticing photos advertised online whatsoever. Small and cramped. The view from our room was so dismal that we might as well have boarded up the window, as it offered nothing but a bleak outlook. The floors creaked incessantly, allowing us to hear every door slam and every conversation from neighboring rooms, making it impossible to find any peace or quiet. To top it all off, the heating was cranked up all night, leaving us to wake up drenched in sweat, as it seemed the hotel keeps the heating on all night else there would be no hot water. I would have preferred to camp with the drug users across the street instead.

The staff were fantastic, and the location was great! However, the hotel itself is extremely tired and in need of some serious updates. Unfortunately, our room was not clean—the bathroom was dirty, and when I pulled the bed out to plug in my phone, I found thick dust that ended up all over the sheets. The room also had a damp, musty smell, which wasn’t pleasant. After walking 15 miles on the coastal path, we were too exhausted to raise it with staff at the time, but it was disappointing. With some much-needed refurbishment and better housekeeping, this place could be so much better.

Good or nice location

Great price for value.
